* The ultimate split path. | |
* Extracts dirname, filename, extension, and trailing URL params. | |
* Correct handles: | |
* empty dirname, | |
* empty extension, | |
* random input (extracts as filename), | |
* multiple extensions (only extracts the last one), | |
* dotfiles (however, will extract extension if there is one) | |
* @param {string} path | |
* @return {Object} Object containing fields "dirname", "filename", "extension", and "params" | |

var splitPath = function(path) { | |
var result = path.replace(/\\/g, "/").match(/(.*\/)?(\..*?|.*?)(\.[^.]*?)?(#.*$|\?.*$|$)/); | |
return { | |
dirname: result[1] || "", | |
filename: result[2] || "", | |
extension: result[3] || "", | |

You can use this regex for file path with full URL:
/\.(.{3})$/
Finally, something that worked for me! Thank you

Find this particular path that is not returning as expected:
\var\www\www.example.com\.hidden\index
